WHAT WE DO

Your North Dakota Standards-Based Learning (NDSBL) team is a collaborative of Regional Education Associations (the Northeast Education Services Cooperative (NESC), South East Education Cooperative (SEEC), and Central Regional Education Association (CREA)), supported by the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction (NDDPI), who believe in equitable resources and learning opportunities for students and educators across North Dakota. We are passionate about high-quality curriculum, instruction, and assessment practices that help educators understand and meet their students’ needs and engage their students and stakeholders in the learning process.

We support schools in the adoption of the NDSBL resources and practices for improved student learning outcomes.

WHO WE DO IT FOR

Educators

Focused instructional time, clear learning progressions, & aligned curricula, instruction & assessments

Students

Clear learning progressions, ownership of the learning, & actionable feedback

Stakeholders

Refined communications of learning expectations and grading/reporting of K-12 content standards

HOW WE DO IT

Developing a guaranteed and viable curriculum is a big lift for any school district! We want to support you with the foundational knowledge, skills and resources common to most schools so that you can get started and can focus your local resources on more customized classroom supports throughout your implementation journey. We also want to work with, learn from, and provide continued support to those schools well into their standards-based learning plan.
